Remember that those taking part in the paint-a-long don't know what I will be doing with the template. They don't know what colours I will be using. I know exactly what I will be doing so I have the edge on them. Another thing is that they have to very quickly make decisions as they follow me - not an easy thing to do. Worst of all is that they have to watch me and at the same time do their own painting - not an easy feat.

Can you see why I have great respect for all who do the paint-a-longs? Can I challenge more of you to be brave enough as well?

I know this is a very old posting... but it got me thinking.

Pushing oneself to do this would be most difficult, but I think it may be most valuable leaning experience. Whatever the painting outcome is, it would teach much.

I will do this... even if I don't post the result. Thanks Dennis ☺

I'm still struggling along on my pastel painting. Lloyd said I should get a set of pastel sticks since the pans are causing me so much grief! I think he's worried the neighbours about think I should be locked up with all the talking I do to myself.... and Dennis, and you, and a few other non present entities!

Can't wait to get started on our land travels... and my search for stick pastels!
